About the Academy
For 90 years the Russian Foreign Trade Academy has been training professionals for foreign economic activity!
All our degree courses have a compulsory core related to your degree discipline. Students majoring in the same field of study share lectures, language classes and seminars, but there are also electives - optional subjects, which let you tailor the course to your personal interests. We are especially proud of the unrivalled language-learning opportunities we provide throughout the four years of study. Our students learn at least 2 foreign languages.
We offer students a broad and balanced curriculum and encourage them to research a wide variety of topics to train undergraduate students in the particulars of their major field of study, but also instill knowledge and skills they can bring in whatever work they eventually choose. World economy, foreign trade, international public and private law, logistics in foreign trade, customs law – knowledge of these disciplines is essential for employment in international companies. These special courses are developed by our faculty experienced in international and foreign trade activity.
We believe that acquiring facts and learning how to think critically and creatively in a variety of ways are equally essential.
